Haha I play HON, its pretty much an exact replica of DOTA in terms of map layout and alot of the heroes. They stopped ripping heroes direct from DOTA after Valve got involved with DOTA 2 so some of them are unique too ;)

League sucks because of the matchmaking system. Unless you ride one hero permanently and become epic with them you get forced into unwinnable games. they claim it's on purpose and the system is just getting a wider range of games to place you in your range... no i don't think so. There are SOOOO many people that get upset or pout or something and ruin the game. I would estimate 1/20 or 1/30 games i had were ridiculously close and so good, the rest were usually a crapshoot one way or another.

Not to mention you don't actually get more or less "skill" if you play ridiculously well while your teammates suck. A loss is a loss, a win is a win, regardless of how bad or good you play.

That said, i played it, i purchased it and will never play again, such a waste.

DOTA i played a lot, very fun. I hold hope for DOTA 2, but sequels are rarely as good as the original so time will tell. :)

make your own 5 man team.. that way there's no one to blame but yourselves.

The getting upset/pouting part gets better as you get more games in. The horrible one sided matches at low level happen when people make new accounts just to play against noobs.
